They'll take me out and buy me drinks

Girls will pay attention; they will want to party with me
& buy me food, and they'll tell their friends
& that is how my legend begins

With my newfound status
I'll try to get into places free
& bring some toadies too
Vicarious friends for vicarious fame

I hung out at the bridge when I was in 9th grade
& I gave my lunch to the hessians
so they wouldn't throw me in the creek
I liked that better than what I've got now

I'm hip I'm cool
I'm on a first-name basis with the people
Who do the things I want to be
They'll take me out and buy me drinks
